I look past the busy streets to find the stories buildings tell. From the grand heritage facades of South Bombay to the intricate Art Deco curves, I capture the city's soul in stone.

About Architectural Diaries: The City in Stone

When I shoot heritage sites like Fort or Colaba, I don't just capture the whole building. I hunt for the specific play of light on Art Deco curves and neo-classical carvings that most people rush past. If we do a session together, be prepared to do plenty of walking, because the best frames are usually hidden in the quieter alleys where the light hits just right.
